Ted Kennedy was probably the most influential US Senator ever, with the exception of LBJ.
However, that does not make up for his shortcomings as a human being. Ted Kennedy had a serious problem with alcohol, womanizing, and the truth. One only needs to google "Chappaquiddick Incident" and see what comes up.
But forgiveness is a hallmark of the Catholic faith, and as a fellow Catholic (probably the only thing Ted Kennedy and I had in common), I forgive him for his shortcomings. I hope that he finds some peace in the afterlife, peace which surely seemed to have eluded him in this life.

Personally, I would prefer it if that peace included spending eternity with Mary Jo's boot jammed halfway up his ass... but then I'm not a Catholic... :-)
